Orange Broccoli Chicken

Wednesday nights are church nights so supper takes the form of some type of skillet meal. Tonight's daily plate is Orange Broccoli Chicken and Baked Sesame Potatoes.

For the main dish, broccoli, carrots, onions and chicken are stir fried and then finished in a sauce of orange juice, chicken broth, soy sauce and molasses thickened with corn starch. The potatoes are cut in half, scored with a knife, brushed with sesame oil and sprinkled with salt, black pepper, garlic salt, and black sesame seeds.

     Tonight's Daily Plate features adobo pork loin chops grilled along with Cajun spiced fresh zucchini from my garden. Watermelon completes the entree for a fresh, spicy summer meal.   Adobo Pork Loin Chops      The zucchini was marinated in olive oil, lime juice, honey, salt and Cajun seasoning. When grilled, it blackened slightly, adding a nice grilled flavor. The zucchini was not a favorite with most of the family, but I personally thought it was delicious. Of course, most of the family thinks vegetables are limited to potatoes, English peas and broccoli.

Finally, I had a serving of simple potato crowns for a bit of crunch. A quick, simple but delicious meal.
